Thirteenth Senatorial District.

EDITOR CLARION: Inasmuch as it will
zens Of Oktibbehs, Clay, Choctaw and
Webster counties to select a Senator, We
desire to suggest the Hon. Wiley \. Nash,
OF Starkyille, for this digni6ed office.
MIR. Nash has, perhaps, done more for
the moral and material advancement OF the
people OF these counties than any OF their
distinguished and public-spirited men
Beginning life after serving the Confeder-
acy during the first years OF his young
manhood, robbed OF his inheritance by the
cruel edlct Of war, he sought first the ad-
vantages OF an education-graduating with
distinction from the Law Department oil
the State University During the dark
days OF reconstruction he was steadfasi
and effective in his opposition to Radical.
Ism, and contributed much time and
money In rescuing the State from the rule
OF the vicious vandal.
As District Attorney he was faithful to
every trust, and justly won the esteem and
admiration of all with whom he came IL
contact.
His services in the Lower House of the
State Legislature bespoke his wisdom al
lawn aker, and his brilliant record as s
representative from Oktibbeha is conclu
sive evidence of his peculiar fitness fol
senatorial honors. A Democrat OF broad
and liberal views, devo. ed to the interest,
OF Mississippi, answering in his integrity
and experienced in parliamentary law, hs
is in every way eminently qualified fol
this important place. CLAY.

Mr.. Childs' Christmas Gifts.

George w. Childs, proprietor of tn,
Philadelphia Ledger, was at his ofics
until late hour Christmas eve. For sew
eral hours he was steadily engaged in seal
ing envelopes, and in each of these en-
velopes there was something that viii
make this joyful Christmas for the recip
tents. On the desk in front of Mr.. Child
were piles of crisp, new bank notes. A
the extreme right was small pile of $500
notes next to them was very respectable
pile of notes of the 500 denomination
Immediately in front of him was big pile
of $50 notes, and at the left was box full
of $40 notes. On a stand was a big box
crammed with envelopes that had already
been directed at his suggestion, with q
memorandum on one corner saying: with
the best wishes of Mr.. Childs." AS he put
the notes in he sealed the envelopes, which
contained nothing except the money, and
put them in another box.
Mr.. Childs was engaged in his usual
Christmas work of sending presents to his
employees and other persons, many of
them poor and needy families, whom he is
in the habit of remembering at this season.
1t was tedious work, but Mr.. Childs did
not seem to mind it, and looked very
happy. Once he made a mistake and
picked up two $50 notes instead of one
Looking at the name on the envelope, he
said "Well, he buried child this year
/ guess he'll need them BOTH" 1t was for
one of the printers. Every person in Mr.
Childs' employ was remembered by a gift
of money. and few received less than SIS.
A man in the Ledger business Office says
that Mr.. Childs distributed and sent off to-
day alone over $4,000 in new bank notes
IS Christmas presents. He also sent sew
eral $500 presents and several checks OF
81 600 daring the past few days. In a
room adjoining his Office two men were
busy packing up and directing books and
other articles as Christmas presents. 1t
was learned from Trustworthy source that
up to last night, including the envelopes to
his employees, Mr.. Childs had given away
e25 900 in Christmas presents.-N. Y. Sun.

How Many Believe 1t.

EDITOR CLARION In the address of the
late president of the Bar Association Of
Mississippi, published in your issue Of
January 5, find the following: eve have
all heard that the attribute of infallibility
is conceded to the Pope in theological
matters by the Catholics Perhaps no
believes ii, but it is done because it is neces-
sary to have some final point, some resting
place in all controversies"
Let me correct the venerable and distin-
guished ex-President of the Bar Associa-
ZION, and assure him that two hundred and
fifty millions of Catholics do implicitly
believe it, the majority of whom would go
to the stake, if need be, to vindicate the
sincerity of their faith in it.
What We hold in theory as to the infalli
bility of the Supreme Judicial tribunals OF
the land, we hold as absolutely true with
reference to the Supreme Head of Christ's
Church on Earth. 1t may be "esnyenient''
fiction to attribute infallibility to the civil
tribunals, but Convenience" can form no
part of the foundation of the dogmas of
the Universal Church, though, as is always
the case with truth. beauty and order follow
In its train as necessary consequences.
The great difference between US and the
very intelligent class of Protestants repre-
sented by the distinguished ex-President of
the Bar Association ia that ts believe in a
supernatural religion, and dirineiy inspired
church, as well in the nineteenth as in the
first century belief which to the "Re-
former" is stumbling block, and to the
Nationalist, foolishness, but to the earnest
Christian the power OF God to the saliva
ton of the world.

Conditional Sales to Traders.

A recent decision of the Supreme
Court in the case of Paine q. Halls Sat;
q Lock Co., announces an important eff
feet upon conditional sales to traders
wrought by the passage of 1900 of the
code of 1880. The court says:
By it r 1901 a change was made as tc
the class of persons contemplated by it
and while the former law as to conditional
sales with all their incidents remains as il
was as to the great body of the people, il
was changed by this section as to all who
fall under the designation of Graders, y
and they are to be treated as the absolute
owners of what they use or acquire in bus
mess, so far as its liability to their credi-
tors is concerned. The evil of permitting
4 separation of title and possession was
found to exist and bear its worst fruits
among those called by the general designA-
ton of Graders" and hence the effort to
correct it, as far as possible, by the just re-
quirement of true signs, and in the absence
of such indicia of ownership, by that
springing from the possession, dominion
and control of the property.

A Canard.

The Chicago Ners has evidently i'm
posed on the esteemed Natchez Democra,
by publishing the canard that Henry
w. Grady is an imported article, with
such Accomplishments as that he is too
young to be Vice President, being only
81 years old; that he was brought to
America by James Gordon Bennett; was
captured by the Confederates; espoused
their cause and came out of the war
with only captains commission, his
sword and the clothes he wore. If Grady
is only 80 years old now he was doing
reasonably well to come out of the war
twenty-five years ago with captains
commission! We guess it was some
other fellows commission. The fact is
Grady is a native-born Georgian, and
he is considerably over 80 years old,
though scarcely old enough to have had
captains commission at the close of
the war. He is approaching the forties
we have been informed.

THE Aberdeen Examiner, in lengthy

opinion that Hayes would never have

At the last session of the Louisiana
Legislature, Sunday law was passed
From its operation numerous places of
business were excepted; among them
newspaper Offices, printing offices, book
stores, drug stores, undertaken shops,
public and private markets, bakeries,
diaries, livery stables, railroads, hotels,
boarding houses, steamboats, and other
vessels, warehouses, restaurants, tele-
graph Offices, theatres, and all places of
amusement where liquors are not sold.
This law was made to take effect from
and after December 81, 1886, and last
Sunday was, therefore, the first to which
it was applicable.
The country parishes, as rule, are in
favor of Sunday law, but the city of
New Orleans has manifested the great
est opposition to it. This oppositio n
has been so bold and outspoken that the
experiment of enforcing the law has
been watched with interest by all, and
with concern by many.
As the time approached for the law to
take effect, the mayor instructed the po-
lice that it must be enforced, and it was
given out that the District Attorne y
was determined to perform his duty in
the premises. In these circumstances
500 citizens, among whom were dealers
in groceries of all kinds, dry goods, toys,
glassware, crockery, boots and shoes,
beer and liquors, and numerous other
articles of necessity and convenience,
joined in petition for an injunction to
restrain the mayor and police officers,
the sheriff, the District Attorney and his
assistant and the judges of the Record
er's courts from enforcing the law.
The petitioners charge, of course, that
the law violates the constitution, and
being at a loss to put their finger on the
particular clause of the constitution
which has been SO rudely dealt with,
they point out the Fourteenth amend
ment to the Constitution of the United
States; and they add that it also "vio-
lates the fourth article of the Constitu
ton of Louisiana, in that, in effect, it il
an establishment of religion; that Sun
day is known as the Christian Sabbath
and its observance as day of abstention
from secular employments, is required %
The most remarkable feature of the pro.
ceeding is that the State of Louisiana
could furnish Judge who would grant
the injunction. 1t would hardly be
credible were it not fact. The dis
tinguished gentlemen who responded to
the prayer of the petitioners is
described as Judge A. L. Tissot
of Division A, Civil District Court
and having ordered the writ he
is now on record not only as be-
ing of the opinion that the citizens of
Louisiana have an inalienable right to
violate the Sabbath, but that he can en-
join the execution of criminal statute.
One position is about as sound as the
other, and both show great unfamiliar
ty with. the judicial decisions of the
country.
Notwithstanding Judge Tissot's in
junction, the District Attorney is pro-
cseding to enforce the law against the
offenders, who are not numerous, all
things considered; and the end of it
will be that the famous injunction will
not serve them except as ground for the
imposition of light sentence or par
don when the majesty of the law shall
have been indicated.

1t is no matter to US, individually,
whether revenue reform comes soon or
late, and we are incapable of Juggling
for it, or bargaining for it, or buying it.
We can stand the tariff racket as long
as the rest can. Our fight Is for a great
principle, and we want no dishonOring
victories. We scorn all cowardly make
shifts and corrupt alliances. We seek
no kind of advantage over anybody, or
any class; entertain no malice or ill-will
against people who are no. of our way
OF thinking; and are as independent of
collision and as incapable of subter-
fuges as Bill Simmons, who, when seated
on his wagon, with jug of red liquor
on one side and double-barrel shotgun
on the other, he peacefully observed:
I'm goin' to town; ard I've got nothin'
agin anybody; but when l start folks
had best git out'n the way, for III start
a-shootin'." This may be, and doubtless
would be, long fight. As far as we
are concerned, it shall be a square one.
We know we are right and we are going
ahead.

Too Absurd to be Entertained.
ST. Louis Republican,

81. Louis republican.
The reduction can be made either BY
abolishing the internal revenue system
which now yields $4,000 900 a year, or
by removing the duty on many articles OF
import and reducing it on others. The in
ternal revenue system is simply system
of taxes on three articles of luxury, spir-
its, heer and tobacco. The partisans Of
high tariff propose that these taxes be re-
pealed and the tariff left alone. But it is
hardly conceivable that the people will
consent to this, which is nothing less than
that spirits, beer and tobacco shall be free
and cheap, while the necessaries of life, the
materials of manufacture and the imple-
ments of industry are taxed. Such a
measure is too absurd to be even enter
tanned The only alternative, then, is a
reduction, and very large reduction in
the tariff rates. These rates were adjusted
on war scale, and it is high time they
were brought down.

That's What's the Matter.

A number of admiring Georgians who
have been hurrahing for Grady ever since
he made his notable speech in New York
are now putting him forward as candi.
date for the Vice-Presidency with Cleve-
land. With the exception of little toe
much 'slobber" Mr.. Grady's speech was Z
very bright and eloquent effort, but it will
hardly boost him high enough in the esti.
nation of his party to land him in the
Vice Presidents chair. To the mass OF
the manly Southern Democrats all talk
about the "New South" is disgusting, be-
cau.e it is INDUCED in for the purpose Of
